RSS Feed workshop One of the workshops that I attended was RSS feeds which simply means Really Simple Syndication which is similar to bookmarks or favourites only faster and easier. This is a revolutional process and so alien to what we are use to with bookmarks or favourites. With RSS the sites communicate information to your computer. For example, if you wanted to have articles sent to you from various newspapers and they have the RSS link, when these articles become available a message will appear on your computer informing you of this. It is then your choice whether you want to view them at that point or file them for later viewing. This cuts down your seraching time and removes the unnecessary downloading of other items you have tagged. A web2 pages we had a chance to look at was [|pageflakes] (click on the hyperlink to take you to the webpage) which uses RSS feeds for personal use. With pageflakes you are able to store and organise photos, music and the like. Here are some pictures from our trip to the gondola.
